Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Trump holds a rally in Georgia with about 2,000 brain-dead supporters, packs like sardines and vast majority without masks at a time there are record number of people getting sick and dying in the US with COVID-19. Idiots. :roll:

Some holding signs “Make America Great Again”, well, their prayers has been answered and Trump lost, and by definition, America will be great again. :D

Do you think these numbers vindicate or refute the kind of claims about Sweden you were making and pushing here back in April ?

The population of the Swedish capital Stockholm could achieve “herd immunity” from coronavirus within weeks, a health chief has claimed.


This is back in April. Weeks away from herd immunity leading to a slow down of the spread of infection and deaths. Apparently. Do these current numbers not show that such optimism back then has in fact turned out to be entirely unfounded 8 months later ?

Things are not looking good for any sort of relaxation next week. Pretty much the opposite I suspect:

In 2015 American researchers were boasting of having successfully modified the Covid virus from bats to infect humans...

The now subscriber-only link to the article…
https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opin ... bate-34502

Baric’s scientific report…
https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985

And by October 2019 this modified virus now capable of infecting humans, found its way smack in the center of a Chinese market as we watched in horror Chinese people dropping dead like flies in the middle of streets!

A minor coincidence?

My initial inclination was not to respond to this post. That, on the basis it's difficult to ascertain what state you might be in. I would hope - but doubt - you had a look through your efforts of a week ago and understand. A disgusting way to conduct yourself. Must have been embarrassing, in the light of day.

Nevertheless.

Believe it or not a great deal of epidemiological research is carried out around the world by various agencies into the threat posed by zoonic viral pathogens. If you look at Baric's CV and history - objectively - you might just acknowledge his work is in that field. He clearly isn't a bio weapons developer. What you've done is to transmogrify a technical report, spun by somebody who does it for a living and bolstered by Chinese disinformation efforts, into a fantasy about US biological warfare on the Chinese. Which - were it true - worked out really well - ehh?

The reason we now have vaccines in the space of 10 months or so, a process which historically's taken a decade or more to produce results, is because of such work. Long may they continue.

If you look at the opening of your Naturemedicine link:

"30 March 2020 Editors’ note, March 2020: We are aware that this article is being used as the basis for unverified theories that the novel coronavirus causing COVID-19 was engineered. There is no evidence that this is true; scientists believe that an animal is the most likely source of the coronavirus."

If you were inclined you could find as much "evidence" that the virus originated from a primary Chinese virology lab within walking distance of the Wuhan market where it is thought - by many non conspiracy theorists - to have orginated. FWIW I give no credence to either that fairy story or your own.

https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-52318539

What seems clear is that the CCP went to considerable lengths, including locking up the doctor who was warning of the novel virus's potential for rapid human-to-human transmission (he subsequently died of it), whilst concurrently locking down Wuhan but allowing international flights to continue as if all was normal, to conceal the outbreak. Spilled milk now though.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-52573137

Your problem is you have - for some reason which escapes me - an oft demonstrated virulent (bad pun) hatred of the USA which you allow to influence all your judgments on related matters in a confirmation bias manner. You want to believe.

You should’ve listened to your inclination because you just haven’t got enough upstairs to participate on this forum and have once again demonstrated your idiocy...

If anything, the need to add such notices (both in the article and on the research report) makes it even more damning and highlights the seriousness of the matter!

As for the rest of your post... comprised of tossings, you can use to make yourself an omelet and eat it, so bon appetite! :)

Trump also thinks he has “reasoned views” but not everyone necessarily agrees with him... you silly old cow! :lol:
